Statistical sources revealed that exports to the Israeli occupation from several Arab countries have doubled during the year 2024, including Egypt, Jordan, and the UAE, despite Israel’s devastating war on Gaza, according to the British “Middle East Eye” website published on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
According to the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics, Egyptian exports to Israel doubled compared to the previous year. Data published on Thursday showed that Egyptian exports in May 2024 amounted to $25 million, which is double the exports during the same period in 2023.
At the same time, the report stated that exports from the United Arab Emirates to Israel also increased to $242 million in May 2024, compared to $238.5 million in May 2023.
Jordanian exports to Israel continued their rise in 2024, reaching $35.7 million in May 2024 compared to $32.3 million in the same period last year.
Unlike Egypt, the UAE, and Jordan, Israeli statistics found that Turkish exports to Israel decreased by more than half in 2024 compared to the previous year, amid restrictions imposed by the Turkish Ministry of Trade on exports to Tel Aviv due to the war in Gaza.
